lolumad! JK.
I’ve been saying the same thing all throughout this thread and everyone here just says SO is noob friendly which I don’t get because a good team will kill you before you get in range, you have 1 shot capacity so if you miss once you’re fucked that is obviously not the case with gnasher which you can also 1 shot so if anything gnasher is more noob friendly IMO.
“My friends beat me with the shotgun all the time oflline so that means it’s the best gun,” is not a good arguement. And since I deleted my gamebattles account and my mlg archive is somewhere in a google server stored away forever, I can’t find legit proof of my story, so basically all I’ve proven is “My friends beat me with lancer offline so it’s best the gun.”
You see how we can’t really go anywhere there? I hope you can.
Anyway, this game is pretty good. Now I feel fine with buying it, I didn’t even want to a couple weeks ago.
Agreed, between the aiming reticle, distance and horrendous reload time most people would be better served with the Gnasher.
Gnasher vs Gnasher
we were facing each other, shooting, I had 3 actives i hit him with… he won… 
Yea good shit nissan, some crazy games last night.
What loadout are you guys using? Im keepin it OG with the lancer/gnasher
Hammerburst/SO is the only load out I’ll ever use it’s just too good lol.
Hammer/Gnasher right now.
Sawed off usually fucks me up because at times i don’t respect it… but when i peep who’s using it in a match i back peddle while using hip fire which proved to be somewhat successful so far
S/O is godlike in execution and in general if you have REALLY good movement. Shit is a straight up Noob cannon I hate that thing. People get bullshit kills off it with their shitty aim because it almost acts like a frag grenade that doesn’t harm yourself. Seriously I have been shot +90 degrees to the left or right in some situations and still die.
In TD id say it is about even between the Gnasher and S/O. The S/O still retains its scrubbiness, but there are more consequences because people have morelives. TD is the inferior mode IMO and is more of a call of duty type gameplay. Execution revolves around much more heavy strategic moves and this is where the S/O shines since the worst thing that can happen in most situations with a decent player and the S/O is you go 1:1 in K:D in a round.
Lancer/Gnasher - chrome skin on both. Right now it’s commando Dom and Theron Guard. I WANT ANTHONY AND RAAM DAMMIT
Everything feels awesome so far. Even the changed ink grenade seems better than what I thought, it doesn’t linger as long but now it stuns enemies caught in the blast for a good while, almost guaranteeing the kill.
For now im going to stick with Jace/Savage Grenadier - Burst/Gnash in Lightning Camo
Jace looks so badass with the lightning camo.
I want to use Skorge though
i wanted the armor’d kantis!
so fuckin sick…
but I think they are a little bigger than the normal dudes.
So are there really different hit boxes?
I just watched some of DSP’s videos of him playing Gears lol man he is shitty. It reminds me of when I got into Gears a few years ago coming over from COD4 and getting bodied. Trying to play it like a linear run n gun COD game and getting my shit pushed in. Thats what I loved about Gears though, you need to take that initial beating for awhile before you got to below average. Then you got to average to decent and so on and watching the results get more consistent was a blast (still is).
I tried to get a bunch of my COD/BF buddies into Gears and they played 2 or 3 matches, got impatient, and basically said “fuck this shit dude such a stupid scrubby shotgun game”. Those kind of statement always made me laugh. It seriously took me like a hour or 2 before i was going above .500 K/D in COD. Game is so linear (it is still fun in its own way though).
EVERYONE is going to use armored Kantus when they get him. I bet 90% of people will use him as their locust main.
So I picked this game up based on the hype and its so-so. I don’t get why some people are jizzing over this. Don’t get me wrong, its fun, but nothing amazing.
The combat is extremely basic. Roll around, shotgun, roll around, cover, shotgun, etc. It gets boring after a while. And the fact that there’s about 6 weapons doesn’t help. Game has zero depth. If I wasn’t such a sucker for achievements…
Question on the perfect reload thing. Is it a damage booster for all guns? It seems like your gun takes longer to run out of bullets when you hit it.
The campaign is pretty weak as well, every cheesy line with “bad words” is pretty weak.
It’s pretty much what I expected, not Jesus but a fun game to turn people into kibbles and bits for a half hour or so. Not sure if it’s worth $60, but I got it for twenty cents after a couple of trade-ins. I think I should be able to get my money’s worth and then some.
At first playing against lower ranks yes the game is what you said. However, if you only hinder yourself to just Team Deathmatch then you really won’t get the most out of multiplayer. Execution even at a mid level is super tactical and strategic, shit even team deathmatch when you rank up gets to be a lot of fun.
Adding a weapon to a game like this requires much more time to balance then say a very linear COD game where you just run n gun the entire time and a couple bullets kills. It is basically just seeing a person that doesn’t see you, shoot, they die. In gears if you are getting shot you have a ton of options to get away or even counter.
The combat in Gears is far from basic.
Someone just gave me a code for Aaron Griffin in MP. Guess I’m playing Ice-T now 
Griffin is such a bitch, terrible character.
Yo but you gotta admit the pimp-ness when his first piece of dialogue with Anya started with “BITCH, You don’t understand shit. blah blah blah”.
And now that think about how he left the story, he could be a DLC campaign segment. EVERYONE in his town is dead and he’s taking the cable car to his refinery, FULL of Human lambants.
